Selfie Station

I have always used Facebook as a means for keeping up with family and friends.  Lately, I have found that Facebook is also a very useful tool for communicating with other school counselors.  I have joined several groups (Caught in the Middle School Counselors, Elementary School Counselor Exchange, High School Counselors' Network, etc...).  I have gotten such great ideas for lessons, working with students, communicating with teachers/admin, bulletin boards, etc...  the list goes on and on. 

I just wanted to share the latest idea I got from one of those groups.  It was such a hit with our staff and students.  I took the idea that another counselor shared and changed it up to fit our needs.  Rather than signing the traditional pledge for Red Ribbon Week our students did the "Selfie Station" this year.  This was a photo booth set up with signs and props like those you see at parties and weddings.  The students LOVED this!  Check out a few of our photos.  If you want to see them all check out our school website HERE.
